Top Six - January 15

So what’s hot, and what’s not, in the past week’s blogging? Here are the six most popular posts on Zelo Street for the past seven days, counting down in reverse order, because, well, I have domestic clear up stuff to do later. So there.

6 Guardian Leveson Hypocrisy EXPOSED An about turn on Section 40, press victims abandoned, and a reputation now in tatters. Not good at all.

4 Sun Desperation Boils Over The Murdoch goons got all righteous over press standards while managing to forget that they have rather a lot of skeletons in their cupboard.

3 Daily Mail Section 40 Own Goal The Dacre doggies suggested that all those tens of thousands who signed a petition on press regulation were supporting their view. They weren’t - it was a petition to demand Leveson 2 is commenced, and now.

2 Sun BuzzFeed Hypocrisy The Murdoch goons told their readers that unverified, single-sourced stories were A Very Bad Thing. There are, however, rather a lot of examples of their doing that themselves.

1 Fawkes Paul Mason Smear BUSTED The Great Guido claimed Mason had got his supposition over Sunday front pages keeping the NHS off that page wrong. He hadn’t - he was spot on. Another fine mess, once again.

And that’s the end of another blogtastic week, blog pickers. Not ‘arf!
